A story of seduction and surrender by the #1 New York Times-bestselling author . . .
An infamous beauty. A daring warrior . . .
For five years, Sapphire has been the king of Sari's most treasured concubine. Independent at last, she refuses to put herself in anyone's control again. But now another's meddling has led her into the path of proud, arrogant Wulfric, crown prince of the rival kingdom of D'Ashier . . . a man who is dangerous to her in every way.
. . . and a seduction that could destroy them both.
The daughter of Wulfric's fiercest opponent, Sapphire is a prized warrior in her own right and highly skilled in the sensual arts-in short, Wulfric's perfect match. A lasting union is unthinkable, but the bargain they strike-to spend one night together, and then part-proves impossible in the face of a desire powerful enough to bring two countries to the brink of war, and two hearts to the point of surrender . . .
A Note from the Author:
Dear Readers,
Some of you may remember this story as Sapphire's Worth. Written in 2004, a few brief excerpts were posted on my website and they were never forgotten-I've been receiving emails about Sapphire and Wulf ever since!
In the Flesh was my second completed novel and although I have written many more since then, this Arabian Nights tale of seduction, power, and ultimate surrender holds a special place in my heart. Wulfric remains one of my favorite heroes. I hope he'll become one of yours as well!
With love,
Sylvia
